FAQs List

Kite & Compass Travel is a Newcastle-based independent travel advisory service founded by Warren Milburn. With over 40 years of professional and personal travel experience, Warren plans and books personalised holidays — handling everything from flights and transfers to accommodation and activities — so you don't have to.

You share your idea, and Warren does the research. After a free consultation to understand your preferences and budget, Warren puts together a proposal with options tailored to you. Once you choose, he handles the booking from start to finish.

For most standard bookings, there is no separate planning fee — Kite & Compass is normally remunerated by the travel supplier. For unusually complex itineraries, a research fee may apply, and this is always agreed with you before any chargeable work begins.

The service is currently available to UK-resident customers only.
